How long car run after battery dies?
Be sure to drive your car for about 30 minutes before stopping again so the battery can continue to charge. Otherwise, you might need another jump start.
Why does my ThinkPad battery need a jump start?
The protection IC then needs a “jump” in order to get it to re-establish the connection for charging, this usually involves applying a high voltage (around 5V is enough) to the cell. Some 18650 chargers have an open-terminal voltage of 5V to kick-start any protection circuits that have locked out. I suppose laptop batteries have similar circuits.
Why is my car battery not starting properly?
As corrosion develops on the ports, the connection consistently grows weaker. There is less metal to metal contact and therefore it becomes harder for power to transfer from the battery to the starter. If you’re having battery problems, check your ports to see if they’re corroded.
What happens if I let my ThinkPad battery go bad?
I agree with the warnings above. Letting a lithium ion battery discharge below a certain voltage causes permanent damage. If that battery is then recharged, there is a possibility it may fail in catastrophic manner, catching on fire and/or exploding.
What to do if your car battery is bad?
There is less metal to metal contact and therefore it becomes harder for power to transfer from the battery to the starter. If you’re having battery problems, check your ports to see if they’re corroded. If they are, you might think about cleaning them. Here’s a good explanation and directions for how to clean battery posts. 3. Disuse
